Root Briars have been coveted and sought after by pipe smokers ever since they made their debut in 1931, due to the fact that for a pipe to bear this rare title, the briar has to be completely free of even the most minor of blemishes. Dunhill has the strictest of standards and expectations for quality with all their pipes, and so any block of briar that comes to bear the Root Briar stamp must indeed be exceptional.

About Dunhill White Spot Pipes

In 1907, Alfred Dunhill inaugurated his tobacconist shop on Duke Street, initially sourcing pipes from independent pipe makers. By 1910, he established his own workshop near the shop. Around 1912, Dunhill introduced the ivory White Spot to the mouthpiece, aiding both staff and clients in correctly positioning the hand-cut mouthpiece on the Dunhill pipe. This emblem soon evolved into a universally recognized symbol for all Dunhill products and secured international trademark status.

Dunhill pipes are renowned as some of the finest globally, earning them the moniker “the Rolls Royce of Pipes.” Crafted from flawless briar, these pipes undergo expert craftsmanship, ensuring an absence of pits, fills, or flaws. Coveted by collectors worldwide, Dunhill Pipes are highly sought after.

In Europe, James Barber boasts arguably the largest and finest selection of Alfred Dunhill pipes, with over 500 available for purchase. Personally curated by James through frequent visits to the Dunhill pipe factory, each pipe reflects a commitment to quality and excellence.

Dunhill pipes are often considered collectibles. The brand’s long history, commitment to quality, and limited production runs contribute to the desirability of their pipes among collectors.

Dunhill pipes are often graded based on the quality of the wood, craftsmanship, and other factors. Higher-grade pipes may have exceptional grain patterns and meticulous finishing.
